Week of January 19th in Mixed Age

Hello Mixed Age Families,

These short weeks are always so fast but we got a lot accomplished in our two days of school. They have really been enjoying cooking in the pretend canter and taking care of the babies who had a nice selection of fruit slayed out for them. Here are some of the other things we did in the classroom.

Math Table~ Colored bears and cups for counting and sorting.

Discovery Table~ Snowman sensory bags with hair gel in a ziplock bag. There was a snowman drawn on the outside of the bag and hair gel, pompoms, buttons and a little plastic carrot on the inside to dress the snowman. The top was taped closed to make sure we had no leaking.

Art/Writing~ They painted melted snowman with a shaving cream and glue mixture and then added all the pieces to it. Today they painted with dot markers and practiced some cutting skills.

Easel~ This week we had big paper, rulers, protractors, colored pencils and highlighters. This was a very popular place this week.

Listening Center~ Little Penguin Stays Awake By Tadgh Bentley

Puzzles & Games~ The kids have been enjoying the little plastic pipes out on the shelf. They were making some long pipes and sprayers.
